Good morning, I was wondering if anyone has had experience telnetting to a windows version of mysql? When I type the following in command prompt,
VB Code:
  1. telnet 192.168.50.50 3306
I get the following result:
VB Code:
  1. 7

  2.  5.0.16-nt☺T(iWY:V",☻Bf^"/c(9)`+P

  3.  
  4. Connection to host lost.

I know that the first part of the result is normal, you are supposed to get the version number (5.0.16-nt), along with garbage back...but after about 10 seconds the connection is lost. I have tried this with two mysql servers, one on my PC...another on a server, and both connections are lost.
